If the bird flu doesn't get 'em, the city might have to go on another wild goose chase. AvianInfluenza
The last few years have been extremely tough for Denver geese.decided to"disappear" a bunch of them for population-control purposes. And the following year, Parks & Rec engaged in another culling operation. There haven't been any such programs since.
This strain of HPAI has been present in Colorado since at least March 2022 and has already led to the deaths — or euthanasia — of over 6 million chickens. Countless wild birds, such as geese, have died from bird flu, too, over the past year. So what does all of that mean for Denver's resident geese population when it comes to potential culling later this year? Signs are heading in a positive direction, as the ravaging of the bird flu probably helps their case in avoiding the gallows.
